Where The F Is My Nexus OTA Update? L710VPLG8!

I have had three over the air updates since I took my Nexus out of the box. I am finding out that there is a better OTA for people that live in LTE areas. Like LG8 or LG9?
Is this true? How can I update my phone now? I don't won't to root I just want apply the factory update like via zip file or something.
My phone keeps picking 3G over 4G. For instance when I go upstairs its 4G but when I go downstairs its 3G. This is so frustrating because I know the 4G signal is still good enough to stay on.
Does anyone know of a way to force LTE only on the Nexus or how to get the MLS Code without rooting? I might be able to adjust it from the inner settings.
Guys I really need some help here because this LTE experience I am having really blows.

You are confusing the L710VPLG8 update that Sprint is rolling out for the Galaxy S 3, a completely different device, with whatever the latest update is for the Galaxy Nexus. (I am no expert on the Gnex, but I was the one who advised you about that firmware version over in the Sprint GS3 General Forum. You posted your question in the wrong forum since it turns out that you actually have a Galaxy Nexus.)

Where the f is your brain... its not even even the same model number. The gnex is the SPH-L700 not 710.... and the latest update is FG01.

I wasn't asking for that exact rom I was meaning where is my equivalent fix because the FG01 is a piece of s***.
So put that in your pipe and smoke it jack a**.
I can be in the same house and get full 4G bars and full 3G bars and I can see the phone fighting to figure out which one and guess what it chooses f-ing 3G.
There must be a sophisticated fix to this.

Uber you are so full of it , why don't you finish your statement ... is your brain? I never mentioned my brain in my original statement you brought that up making it personal. I never directed my comments to anyone in my original statement. You are just in a hole so deep you will do anything to get out.

Its possible to force LTE its an option in most ROMs.

Refurb E4GT with bad esn

So I switched from Sprint to vzw a few months ago. I still haven't paid off sprint so my e4gt has a bad ESN. Sprint just send me a letter with a padded envelope offering me $100 to recycle my phone. Worth it or no?

Wait a couple months and then activate it. I did that with a phone given to my aunt. It wouldn't work when I first tried then a couple months later I tried again and it worked and got activated. I guess after a certain period the esn gets cleared out the system. Hmm maybe when the account is sent to the credit collectors the phone gets cleared out.

Thanks for the advice. I just checked them on an ESN checking site and they are clean. I agree with the debt collectors theory.
This kind of changes things. Sprint definitely isn't getting them. Not sure what my next move will be. Probably sell them.

It may have a clean ESN but if you sold it the person couldn't activate it until the bill has been paid to clear the phone from the account.. I had to learn that the hard way when I sold a phone a while back

Verizon hardly ever clears esn's. I lost a blackberry I had on vzw and swapped to a flip phone, found the blackberry and they still wouldn't clear the esn, even tho I was the original owner and it was only swapped, I never even officially reported it lost/stolen. I had just called and said I needed to swap phones cuz id misplaced the active one, never filed a claim or anything. That stupid blackberry is still blacklisted and that was like 5 yyears ago

If form factor was the reason I could see the Note being a good choice. Especially if you dont own a tablet.
As far as the N4 its more a lateral (if that) move than an upgrade.

I've had both since an s3.The nexus 4 great phone ,real sleek and feels good in the hand and very fast, but I feel like the camera for some reason is not as good as the s3, and when I played youtube videos on HQ, it really didn't. It really didn't look so clear. Then i got the note 2 and was amazed great phone fast! The multi window feature and the S-pen features is good too, but just little to big for me. Well back to the s3, just great phone to me! Now I'm not here putting either phones down because they were both great phones but my opinion the s3 just right for me.

I was a true flash addict. Hell I could barely enjoy my phone as a phone since I was always flashing.
I was on CM10 for a while and flashing a nightly every night and searching for mods was a daily fix for me.

Waste of time and money if you ask me. The Note 2 is just a bigger version on the S3 with a pen and the N4 is a step down from the S3 if you are used to having a bunch of your music and pictures on your phone, especially for off line use in bad data areas, while in other countries, and on flights. 12GB or 5GB of usable storage and a nonremovable battery just doesn't cut it for many of us who use our phones all day long for everything. If you are a hardcore developer and don't need the storage space and don't need to stash extra batteries around by all means jump to the N4.

Tegrak

Hey guys. I've got a gs2 and I'm thinking about this device but I might just wait until the s4 comes out. Undecided at this point. Anyway the reason for this thread is because I didn't see any others about the fact that we can now overclock the stock kernel with tegrak overclock, as long as you're rooted, from the play store. Most of you probably already know this and if there is a thread on this topic then just delete this but I didn't see one so I thought I would share the info.

Why don't you just buy the phone used on Craig list they go for about 200/250 in Chicago I seen one sold for 150 and save your upgrade. This is a good phone but better things are already popping up. I say get this on Craig list is because it would at least give you 4g lte, wimax don't compare on speeds. And where I live wimax is not availbe my girl friend hates sprint with 3g but. Love using my phone 4g lte because I can tether my net to her phone.

Yeah most likely where I live I'll never see lte. Never saw wimax so that I definitely won't see either lol. I mostly use wifi because I can't stand 3G either. I'll have to check out Craigslist though. You can get one for $119.00 on Amazon wireless. But then again you are burning an upgrade on last year's device. The gs2 with stock jellybean is pretty cool though. It'll be even better once we get source but who knows how long we'll have to wait for that. Hopefully soon.

The gs2 with stock jellybean is pretty cool though. It'll be even better once we get source but who knows how long we'll have to wait for that. Hopefully soon.

My personal opinion would be to hold off for the s4 I LIKE me s3 but with the s2 also running JB it can do for most part all that the s3 can do minus NFC. If you look at them on paper you will see a minor all around spec jump. However you look at the s2 on paper and what people are guessing the s4 will have that should be a major jump. Plus samsung is really neck and neck with apple right now at least by wall streets anaylists so I am sure the s4 is going to be just a beast of a phone and hopefully put that final nail in apples coffin. The s3 almost did it
Made leaps and bounds more than any other android hand set to date so that should say something so it will be very exciting to see what the s4 will look like. And also done forget Google is working on the x phone. I imagine that will be a beast of a phone as well. As it will be Motorola and googles first tight collaboration since the acquisition.

Yeah 99 bucks is a great deal but I don't to burn the upgrade just yet. I was so close to doing it too but I'm going to just wait for the s4. Besides other than the leaks for the s2 I've been running, which have been really great, we still haven't seen the final build or source yet so it's only going to get better.

[Q]MK4 4.3 wifi

I'm just curious now that I have a solid 4G connection I've gone 3 days without turning wifi on, but under battery it shows a solid blue line for wifi anyone else notice this? Could it be 4G acts like wifi? Like I said I've never had a solid 4G connection before so I'm unsure

Turn on Wifi and turn it off, then reboot, after it settles turn it on again, connect to a Wifi and then turn it off... That's what I did, I live in a 4g area and it is faster than my dsl Wifi so I don't use it at all but after doing this the issue went away...

I'm on lorjay's 4.3 TW rom, which one are you using? I'm on the latest release and don't have that issue anymore, my only suggestion would be to reflash the MC2 with counter reset and then lorjays rom then odin the wifi fix again, I know it is a pita to do it but since I haven't seen anybody else with our issue that will be the last resource... the only issue I keep carrying is the mdm_hsic_pm0 wakelock... the only thread about it is here and I have tried all the suggestions... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2009956

I'm gonna wait on the upgrade, maybe a couple months I got this note 2 3 months ago and I'm still learning about samsung as I was on htc for a while, what phone are you gonna get? the Note 3?

Yeah I'm getting the n3, had the evo and evo 3d, went to Samsung with the s2, s3 and note I I. I like Samsung and have been a tester for Labrats for quite sometime now

Can you check under Wi-Fi advanced settings and see if your device has always allow scanning checked. I'm assuming that's what your problem is. If it is that you will experience a huge increase in battery life. I had that option on when I first updated like oooh that sounds interesting. Thing was draining battery like no tomorrow and kept the blue bar solid just like on your screenshot.

No problem. I don't know why Google added that option, it sounds interesting but it's crap! What they don't tell you is how batt hungry it is and instead says in the description it saves battery. Idk maybe there's a glitch since it's new.. I was just setting up an HTC One I upgraded my aunt to and they throw that option at you soon as you start a phones set up process. I'm sure many are checking it off thinking it's better than using the GPS and mobile location option. It really isn't, although wifi is off from settings n notification toggles it's still actually on in a sneaky way. Only way to tell it's running 24/7 is through that blue bar or from BBS.

I think it's time for a new battery. The most I get now that I turned that off is about 12hrs and 4-5 SOT depending on how my phone feeling at the moment lol. But I'm glad that fixed it for you n hope you see some battery increase while at it. Not like you need it tho lol
